Hm, I could have looked at namecheap too. I ended up going with Porkbun because of well... it is cute and lovely. Not a great reason to choose a service, but it came highly recommended.

I do use Aurora and I think it wonderful, when it works it does what I want. When it doesn't work I got to worry about my banking app going out of date.

I hope I can hold off, but I don't like being limited either, even though we have an embarrassment of alternatives for almost everything.

Right on. The first domain I will buy will be a personal fun one, just to experiment and mess around. I don't quite know what professional name I want for my domain, since I don't have a brand or anything, and having just my name seems odd.

This looks really solid. It looks like I have a couple options for Docker that seems to make life easier. Thank you for the suggestion.

I keep saying it but I need to get familiar with docker, especially to run all other kinds of services.

I guess I will try mailcow first.

Interesting, I would think that email requires the least amount of resources, which is probably why so little effort is put to optimizing it.

You are special and I love you.

You were not exaggerating, Linux Mint is MAGIC!. Everything about this distro is so clean and well put together. Cinnamon is everything I wanted out of XFCE.

I cannot believe I slept on this because I dismissed anything associated with Ubuntu. I have been so stupid. I have wasted so much time, and haven't even really gamed on my new computer.

I finally feel like I can commit to learning Blender and get back to Godot.

Thank you.

I am the most comfortable in rabbit holes.

A lot of people on here are way more technically minded than I will ever be, so if they are having trouble, I AM IN TROUBLE! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

I think I will be fine. I am keeping the emails I already set up. If I get fluent and comfortable running my own email server, I may migrate, but I am not shooting myself in the foot anytime soon.

This is way out of my comfort zone and I am firmly in the research phase, almost ready to make some decisions, but I need to carve out time to set it all up.

This is a good method. It is our duty to do everything we can to live by our principles, and be careful about the compromises we make. The more I go deep into FOSS, the more I discover. So much exists, it just takes some work on our part to fit it to our needs. Programming competency does not have to be high, just enough to fix any compile errors.

Nice. That is way more emails than I ever deal with in a month. Maybe in a year. I am really conservative with my online stuff, mostly because I hated the idea of managing so much crap even if it is something I want.

So, I am going to play with Mailcow, Mailinabox, and iRedMail.
